Cancer due to schistosomiasis is still common in subtropical countries and affords hundred thousands of human and animal deaths per year. Expert authors play close attention to the biology and morphologic aspects of Schistosoma species as well as the history and status quo of schistosomiasis epidemiology. In a unique way, the present work illustrates the need to involve strategic measurements, and to control both adult worms and larval parasite stages. With a special focus on Jiangxi Province, the authors present an effective management plan, ranging from intermediate host snail control to diagnostic tools, medical aid, as well as public health education. This approach from China can be used as blueprint in other countries hit by the same worm infections. The contents of this book will thus be meaningful for academics and practitioners in the fields of parasitology, public health, as well as human and veterinary medicine.Parasitology Research Monographs,2192-3671 ;11ParasitologyEpidemiologyHealth promotionVeterinary medicineParasitologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B19002Epidemiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H63000Health Promotion and Disease Preventionhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27010Veterinary Microbiology, Parasitology and Infectious Diseaseshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H67020EsquistosomiasithubXinathubLlibres electrònicsthubParasitology.Epidemiology.Health promotion.Veterinary medicine.Parasitology.Epidemiology.Health Promotion and Disease Prevention.Veterinary Microbiology, Parasitology and Infectious Diseases.Esquistosomiasi616.96614.553Wu Zhongdaoedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtLiu Yiwenedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMehlhorn Heinzedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910373913803321Schistosomiasis Control in China2140618UNINA
